Domingo Germán (4-4) fell behind 4-0 by the second inning, a day after Jameson Taillon trailed 4-0 in the first.
The Yankees have lost seven of nine and 13 of 18. They are in fourth place, 8 1/2 games behind AL East-leading Tampa Bay, their largest deficit since September 2018, and at 32-21 are one game above .500 for the first time since they were 17-16.
The Yankees grounded into their 64th double play — they started the day tied with Houston for the major league lead. Rougned Odor was caught off second base on Gleyber Torres' seventh-inning grounder to shortstop, the Yankees 31st runner out on the bases this season. No other team started the day with more than 23.
Nola (5-4) had been 1-3 with a 5.68 and .299 opponents' batting average in his previous six starts. He allowed two singles to DJ LeMahieu and a double to Odor, and he walked one, throwing 103 pitches.
New York, missing Aaron Judge due to back spasms, finished with four hits against Nola and relievers Connor Brogdon or Enyel De Los Santos.
The Yankees were shut out for the third time this season, and the Phillies pitched their fifth shutout.
LeMahieu became the fourth-fastest Yankee to 100 multihit games, his 256 games trailing only Joe DiMaggio (208), Mickey Ricers (250) and Bob Meusel (255).
Germán allowed seven runs and 10 hits in 4 1/3 innings. The Phillies went 4 for 7 with two doubles against his curveball.
Germán and Taillon combined to last just 4 2/3 innings in the series, allowing 15 hits and 11 earned runs, for a 21.22 ERA.
Segura had three hits and became the first Phillies player since 1953 with three or more hits and two or more RBIs in three straight games. He is hitting .424 with seven RBIs in June, raising his average to .339
Andrew McCutchen doubled twice,
Rhys Hoskins was 0 for 4 and is hitless in 26 at-bats.
Realmuto singled in the opening run in the first, and Herrera's RBI double and Segura's two-run single built the 4-0 lead.
